Best low cost musician's ear plugs I've ever used. They do muffle tone a bit, but I can hear much more clearly than with the lower cost Etymotic ear plugs, for example. They do NOT have flat attenuation; they attenuate more at the frequencies that can damage your ears more easily. I have volume sensitivity due to light auditory nerve damage from a lot of loud music, and these plugs keep my ears comfortable.

I always use the green filters; they work even when I'm playing live and standing in front of the drums. The red filters are really for drummers, I think, and they attenuate much more than the green ones. That means they muffle tone more. This is an issue as I am a singer and I can't dial in my voice like I can dial in my electric guitar. These ear plugs let through more of the detail in the vocal range than any other low cost musician's ear plugs that I have tried. I think I would need to spend $100 - $200 to get better ones.

Musicians always need good protection. These plugs provide two different types of noise-reducing inserts and come with a handy easy-plug string. It is important to note that they changed the case they come with from the blue nylon material, to a smaller waterproof black cylinder with a keychain or necklace loop.

These do a good job of providing BALANCED sound reduction across all frequencies. They do not drown out high frequencies as much as standard ear plugs. I ran A/B test at a slipknot concert and was impressed compared to my other standard ear plugs.

Great product for any musician who has to stand or sit in front of a loud section. This will protect your hearing. The 2 filter system is great! It's a little hard to push the filter in at first, but it really works well. The cords a little short, but it's so nice to have the plugs on a cord so they're not lost.
